[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 340412, member: 8"] Vincent Price is brilliant as guest villain EGGHEAD in this thinking man's episode of BATMAN. [ATTACH type="full"]40830[/ATTACH] It's a delightfully convoluted scheme that takes a lot of spoken explanation, but listening to Vincent Price's voice never gets boring. Batman gets a lot of showing off to do - he really is the best in everything - and sometimes it feels as if Robin is [I]seething[/I] his admiration. It's one thing to be a sidekick but it's another to have one's nose rubbed in it. Thankfully, Batman allows his Boy Wonder to shine in the CHANDELL story. He instructs Robin to remember a whole concert note for note (it will reveal that Chandell's performances are fake) and it's precisely the kind of mentoring that Robin needs. After all, one day he'll be the superhero of Gotham City. Liberace plays a rather forgettable twin-villain but I enjoyed everything else that happened in this episode. [ATTACH type="full"]40831[/ATTACH] As per usual, the props and decors are fabulous and Batman and Robin's escape from the giant music roll perforator needs to be seen to be believed. The series loves its comic book style angles. [ATTACH type="full"]40832[/ATTACH] Their weapon is the special sound of a bagpipe that paralyses their victims eventhough it can be heard be everyone in proximity, including themselves.
